🔒 Closed Duterte Is Turning Philippines Into A More Corrupt And Less Democratic State

The Philippines is getting a more corrupt and less democratic state under President Rodrigo Duterte. That's according to recent rankings published by international agencies.

The Philippines is the 113 least corrupt nation out of 180 countries, according to the 2019 Corruption Perceptions Index reported by Transparency International. That's 14 notches below the 2018 ranking and 18 down from 2015 before Duterte becomes President!

Meanwhile, the Philippines slid down one notch in the Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) Democracy Index for 2019, to 54th place.

That's on top of two notches it slid in 2018.

Rising corruption means that President Duterte's anti-corruption rhetoric that helped him grow in power was just that — rhetoric. Meanwhile, his death squads and attacks on media have undermined the country's democratic institutions, without helping the Philippines in the corruption front.

For my DDS 'friends" who cannot understand why it's bad that the rating went down:

Bumaba ang rating nya: ibig sabihin mas malayo sya sa top 10...
Number 1 sa listahan ay pinaka magandang bansa, then number 2... number 3... hangang number 180 ang pinaka corrupt. Pilipinas ay # 113. Noon 2015 #95 ang Pilipinas.

Ahh ano pong konek? Ang babaw niyo naman po? Yan lang ba kaya niyong mga trolls?

Attacking the character a.k.a. The defense mechanism of those who can't win debates.

Those people do not deserve even the slightest bit of attention. Do not mind them

Surveys do not reflect the actual situation of a country. Nor is it a basis for truth.

Simple logic. People being satisfied with someone do not necessarily equate to that certain someone actually being successful in doing what he/she promised. Did you seriously think the opinions of a mere 1500 or so people reflect the actual state of the nation? Argumentum ad populum. Just because the 'majority' thinks it is true doesn't automatically mean it actually is.

If you don't understand what surveys are, how they are interpreted and when they can be used, then don't use them as arguments.

You want to prove that this administration is better than the previous ones? Why don't you start comparing actual data instead of survey results? Maybe you'll get somewhere.

Sa mga ganyang survey/s kasi sila bumabase na tingin nila ay nirerepresenta ng karamihan (majority) kapag tingin nilang pabor sa kanila, kaliwa't kanan ang pag post nila

Sorry for you guys...

Post ka din about previous administration! Para mas maging kapanipaniwala ka! Pag nagawa mo yun mas marami yung maliliwanagan, at baka makasama ka din sa mga yun, i dare you!

 

[paulosakuragi]

best example ng survey ng dilawan ay nitong kakatapos lang na senatorial election, nangunguna mga dilawan sa mga paaralan tulad ng UP at iba pang unibersidad, anong nangyari nong official election?? nga nga! tulad lang yan ng mga survey nila ngayon

I never said that the previous administration was perfect: of course, it had its share of corruption... But it never reached the scale of the duterte administration. And, for your information, the past administration is PAST... We are living now in 2020, almost 4 years since duterte was elected so stop talking about the past and see how it is now!
You are all talking of the "accomplishments" of this administration but none of you can give me a list of real accomplishments... just saying "dami" does not make them true!
So, my turn to dare you giving me a list of what he did in almost 4 years!

Sandali lang huh, tinanggap mo ba yung dare ko? Oo at hindi lang naman, kung hindi mo kaya hindi naman kita pipilitin! Para sa kaliwanagan ng lahat. ( Marami ang nakakabasa) Tapos heto ka at ibinabalik naman sa akin? (iwas pusoy sa salitang kanto) present is just as important as the past or the future, for without it the past was for nothing, and the future will never arrive. Sya nga pala readily available ang lahat ng info online (na sya din mismong ginagamit mo ngayon) para malaman yung mga sinasabi kong accomplishments! Signed na din yung foi! Tanggap mo pala na corrupt yung previous admin hindi ka kumuda! Natural mente sinasaklaw ng kasalukuyan kung ano yung gusot ng nakaraan! Sya nga pala nabibilang ako sa sektor ng mga manggagawa abroad, alam ko na hindi sapat yung remittance namin (kahit pa man alam natin ang epekto ng remittance ng mga ofw sa economy ng Pinas) Tax payer din ako. Ngayon nagawa mo ba yung dare ko?
